but in the news they never mention how it works.. do we need to get a new account to get the e sim work on AW or we can use our current account(current phone number) and share the e sim among iphone and AW..
*
Base on SG Singtel and Starhub information, they are using NumberShare which the eSim for AW must be same with your current phone number, i think Malaysia should be using the same method

how about the charger of these telco?any extra charge to use this service?
*
In Singapore it is add-on charges around $6 per month, hopefully in Malaysia the price is acceptable, otherwise the cost of owing cellular AW will become higher

I dont think AW5 cellular will be available here.

on AW5 page at apple malaysia's site here part about cellular connectivity has been removed, which exist on US and SG page.
*
The Apple Malaysia AW S5 page lack a lot of information compared to SG page, not just cellular connectivity section. It could be due to S5 not yet released in Malaysia therefore the information available is not comprehensive enough. Since S5 cellular version has been listed in SIRIM, there is high possibility it would be available here, but may delay the release due to telco not yet ready

Lets hope so, itching to get myself a cellular model. However knowing Apple usually the product page will remain the same before or after product launch. hope i am wrong on this.

Most probably depend on the Telco progress also, if the Telco is unable to be ready to support cellular in AW, even cellular version is listed in SIRIM, eventually we will not get the cellular version as well. If Telco think that AW with cellular is expensive gadget and limited user will subscribe to their plan, they might not eager to support.

Currently only Maxis support smart watch with cellular, but only limited to Huawei Watch 2.

if got budget/want to get celluar version(if apple offer it for MY market)..go for AW S5..
if just to get a AW..AW S4 is more than enough..
*
Based on the SIRIM database it seem that AW3 might be have cellular version also, if Apple bring in cellular for AW3 then got another cheaper option too biggrin.gif

yes, indeed.. rclxm9.gif but i prefer AW S4/S5..come with thin bezel/larger screen..
*
Seem like S4 not much stock left, only have S3 and S5 option, if have budget definitely go for S5 as price difference with S4 also not much, if limited budget can consider S3 since the price less than 1k now haha biggrin.gif
